I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Certified Couples and Sex Therapist in Beverly Hills. My approach is both relational and in-depth, characterized by warmth, compassion and collaboration. I love working with individuals from all walks of life and I’m interested in your uniqueness, cultural background and how that shapes the world around you and your relationships. It’s my job to prove to you that with a bit of effort and the right guidance, you can make huge improvements in the areas your relationship is currently suffering and come through this experience stronger than ever.
As a couples therapist, my primary focus is communication. Resolving any relationship conflict begins with clear and open communication, in a space where emotions can be identified and set aside so as not to hinder true listening and deep understanding of one another.
I focus on teaching you how to express your feelings and needs without using anger, criticism and blame, and how to listen, without defensiveness, so that your partner feels understood and cared for. Once you truly feel heard, we are able to relate to each other, connect and create the foundation necessary for resolving the underlying challenges.
I hold a safe, non-judgmental space for you to talk openly about sex and sexuality, such as improving sexual intimacy, sexual desire or arousal issues, and sexual anxieties or difficulties. Our sexuality is an intrinsic part of who we are. When we are not confident or self-expressed in this part of our life, it can affect our sense of self and our relationship. I will be there to help you both navigate these issues successfully and compassionately.
